Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate
- 400g milk or dark chocolate, broken into pieces
- 100g white chocolate, broken into pieces
Add-ins
- 75g biscuits, of your choice, broken into pieces
- 2 tbsp sprinkles, chopped nuts or sweets
Instructions
- Melt the Milk or Dark Chocolate: Place the milk or dark chocolate pieces in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Stir gently until the chocolate has melted completely and is smooth. Alternatively, melt in the microwave in short bursts, stirring between each until fully melted.
- Melt the White Chocolate: Remove the bowl from the heat and either melt the white chocolate in the same bowl over the simmering water or in the microwave in short bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Prepare the Tray: Line a baking tray or sheet with baking parchment. For thinner shards of bark, use a baking sheet; for chunkier pieces, choose a smaller tray.
- Spread the Base Chocolate: Pour the melted milk or dark chocolate onto the prepared tray. Tilt the tray side to side gently to spread the chocolate evenly to your preferred thickness and shape.
- Swirl the White Chocolate: Spoon teaspoonfuls of the melted white chocolate over the milk or dark chocolate base, reserving a little for drizzling. Use the tip of a knife or a skewer to swirl the white chocolate through the darker chocolate, creating a marbled effect.
- Add Toppings: Scatter the broken biscuit pieces evenly over the chocolate surface. Drizzle the remaining white chocolate in a spiral pattern over the top, then scatter the sprinkles, chopped nuts, or sweets to decorate.
- Set the Bark: Place the tray in a cool place, such as a refrigerator or a cool room, and allow the chocolate bark to set fully until firm.
- Serve or Store: Once set, cut or break the chocolate bark into pieces. Wrap in airtight containers or gift wrap as desired, and store in a cool, dry place.
Notes
- Use good-quality chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
- You can customize the toppings with your favorite nuts, dried fruits, or candy pieces.
- Ensure the tray is level when setting to avoid uneven thickness.
- Store the finished bark in an airtight container to prevent moisture absorption.
- If the chocolate softens too much at room temperature, refrigerate before serving.
